Re: So when is it actually going?

Its deprecated because of the need to provide backwards compatibility for previous versions of the jdk. They have got a better and newer version of data apis ripped seemingly directly from jodatime. In java 9 modules should be making an appearance, which means the ridiculous memory footprint should be being resolved, and the old data api will never get loaded.
